I'm also not against the idea of handing down last names matrilinearly... -- nm - znufrii Nov 20, 11:39 15
- holy *fuck*, did you forge that word in the fires of Mordor? - TFox Nov 20, 11:40 13
  - you need to expand your vocabulary. -- nm - loosilu Nov 20, 11:41 12
    - no i don't. there are words i understand just fine, and yet don't use because they are not fit for general usage. - TFox Nov 20, 11:42 10
      - Since Spawn dinged in with his "the opposite of Loosi" post, I'll ding in with a "Loosi is right" post. That word described EXACTLY what he meant. - TWuG Nov 20, 11:45
      - *ding* - Spawn Nov 20, 11:43
      - it was the right word for what he meant. -- nm - loosilu Nov 20, 11:43 7
        
        it doesn't matter. words have one purpose: to communicate. when you use words like that, you are not attempting to communicate in the clearest way. - TFox Nov 20, 11:44 5
        
        The word described EXACTLY what he meant. And did so with ONE word instead of the 5 you'd take. Being concise is a virtue. -- nm - TWuG Nov 20, 11:46
        
        I don't understand how that word is unclear in the slightest. - znufrii Nov 20, 11:45 2
        
        heh - "thereof". Stop bullying TFox :) -- nm - Roger More Nov 20, 11:46 1
        
        it's not my fault he's scared by big words. -- nm - znufrii Nov 20, 11:47
        
        all righty then. -- nm - loosilu Nov 20, 11:44
        
        thank you. -- nm - znufrii Nov 20, 11:44
    - his vocabulary is fine..... - groiny Nov 20, 11:42
- of course you're not. -- nm - Reagen Nov 20, 11:39
